The Color Files

This week on The Color Files, we have a Supermodel, Writer, and Actress in our midst. In fact, Veronica Webb (@VeronicaWebb) is the first-ever African American model to have a contract with a major cosmetics company! 🙌🏾 But it’s not all peaches and cream. On this episode, Veronica speaks to host, Julee Wilson (@MissJulee), about the struggles of being a Black model in the 90s. Veronica opened up about past experiences that have led to her carrying her own foundation (and wigs) in her bag to this day! She also told us more about her pro-aging beauty and fashion blog (www.webbonthefly.com) and let us in on a few healthy eating secrets that have helped her age so gracefully. Veronica is - in her words - “Vegan before 6pm”. No joke, Veronica still looks 25, 30 years later! She’s definitely the one to take tips from.

Whew, chile! This episode is one for the books. Tune in as The Color Files host, Julee Wilson, has a real girl chat with Beatrice Dixon (@iambeadixon), the CEO and Co-Founder of the plant-based feminine care brand, The Honey Pot Company (www.thehoneypot.co ). They get right down to the nitty-gritty about all things vagina related: feminine wash, pH balance, lube, and much more. Our good sis even revealed a sex hack! (It involves lime juice) 👀. Beatrice tells the astonishing story of how an ancestor (yes, you read correctly) gave her the first successful formulation in a way that you’d never expect. The conversation got super deep as they spoke about spirituality, energy exchange, and finding yourself. Beatrice is a genuine soul-sister.

We love it when way-makers come through on The Color Files! This week’s guest is EPIC. Our host, Julee Wilson (@missjulee) kiki-ed with the one and only Misty Copeland (@mistyonpointe)! The two ladies reminisced about the moment they first met (over a decade ago). The story is HILARIOUS! They spoke about all the things - Misty’s super intense workout routine, her last-minute cameo in Drake’s “Nice For What” video, her obsession with baby lotion, and so much more. Misty also revealed something unexpected - she doesn’t look in mirrors for months at a time. SHOOK.
